Dynamic Military Ropes

Prime, single, half and twin ropes with balanced technical parameters and high performance.
They serve mainly for military operations, when a soldier may fall down from a great height or
to a depth. TENDON military ropes capture impact force and are typical for superb resistance
against abrasion, water and dust. Available in camouflage designs for all terrains
(desert sand, khaki, black).

      
 

Single ropes: 9,2 mm, 9,7 mm, 9,8 mm, 10,2 mm, 10,5 mm, 11,0 mm, 11,4 mm
Twin ropes: 7,8 mm, 7,9 mm, 8,5 mm, 9,1 mm
Half ropes: 7,9 mm, 8,5 mm, 9,1 mm
Indoor ropes: 10.0 mm, 10.5 mm

TEFLON®

 TENDON climbing ropes are the only ropes in the world to be produced with a DuPontTM TEFLON® fabric protector license. Ropes protected by a TEFLON® layer have extraordinary water and abrasion resistance. The TEFLON® layer also effectively prevents the intrusion of dust particles into the rope structure and thus increases its lifespan.

The rope is protected with a very stable organic resin based on organic fl uoridated polymers. The resulting protective fi lm reduces the surface energy of the textile material so much that it not only repels water, but fatty substances as well.

On the basis of physical principles, the special TEFLON® protection prevents absorption of water, fats and dust or abrasive particles on the rope’s surface. It also prevents the penetration of those particles into the internal structure of the rope, protecting the inside of the rope from damage. The TEFLON® layer gives our ropes superior properties for use, especially in damp or abrasive environments where ordinary ropes are vulnerable to serious damage.

In cooperation with DuPontTM , we have managed to increase the user value and safety of our ropes yet again after several months of research and practical testing.

By the addition of TEFLON® special additive, with which we impregnate our dynamic ropes, they demonstrate even better results with regards to the protection of sheath yarns from clinging dust! This results in the ropes being more resistant to abrasion, which otherwise shortens the lifespan of a rope and decreases the safety of a climber.

From now on, all dynamic ropes in the versions Protect Shield or Complete Shield will demonstrate an even greater safety and longer lifespan than previously available versions.

NANOTECHNOLOGY

 This new fi nishing method allows the application of tiny particles of TEFLON® onto the core and the sheath of the rope. The particles perfectly cover the surface, creating a nearly impermeable layer along the entire rope, protecting it against water, dust and other particles that might damage the core and the sheath.

To date, all available processes have only allowed the application of impregnation particles with sizes of 10-3 to 10-6 m. Our development team has successfully found a method which enables TEFLON® particles of 10-9 m (i.e. 1000 times smaller than to date) to be applied to the rope sheath/core surface!

The impregnation process itself consists of the application of a polytetrafl uorethylene (PTFE) derivate on the individual fi bres of the sheath and/or the rope core. The PTFE emulsion is applied to the rope surface and then fi xed using a machine specially developed for this purpose. The effect of the electrostatic forces on the inter-molecular bonds in the PTFE oligo-derivative causes the nanoparticles to mesh and a PTFE polymer to form.

The process takes place at high temperatures and under predefi ned physical conditions which have been verifi ed over a long period of time in order to ensure the best rope parameters.

Once the PTFE derivate has been applied, the important relaxation phase occurs – the rope cools for several hours, during which time it rests and the fi nal user parameters become fixed.

Both laboratory tests and the experiences of our test climbers have shown that the NANOTECHNOLOGY means that TENDON ropes are able to boast better water-proofi ng and abrasion-proofi ng parameters when compared to other products – these ropes show minimum absorption and maximum resistance to sharp stone edges. Logically, their service life and the safety of climbers are improved.

 

TeROM

 This new revolutionary system of rope marking uses a microchip integrated in the end of the rope to carry rope identifi cation information. TeROM allows for easier identifi cation and registration of rope inspections and checks. All data saved in the microchip can be easily read and some of them complemented using a mobile reader.

New release - the entire system is now on offer in a version with a special reader which connects to a standard PC, which then allows for both reading and also the printing of data.

The microchip contains both data programmed by the manufacturer (e.g. name, diameter, length and production date of the rope) and freely programmable data (numerical code, inspection date or identifi cation of the inspecting technician).
